Three steps to navigating the great wealth transfer
When Bill Gerber became Fairfield’s First Selectman he anticipated that one of his biggest priorities would be fighting the proposed construction of powerlines strung from structures known as monopoles by United Illuminating (UI) in Fairfield alongside the Metro North Railway.
“We believe we’re very justified,” Gerber told Westfair in January. “I think there’s a misconception by some people that this is just another ‘not in my backyard’ thing, but this is much more than that. These monopoles are going to really hurt, all across the town. They’re huge, and they’re going to be quite invasive on commercial, private, and residential property.”
As originally proposed, the monopoles, which United Illuminating characterizes as an important part of their regional power transmission infrastructure, would have lined the south side of the rail line with overhead wires stretched across 102 monopoles covering a 7.2-mile stretch.
The original plan was rejected, but the Connecticut Siting Council issued a certificate to UI for the implementation of what is called the Hannon-Morissette Alternative. The Alternative moves the proposed overhead lines to the north side of the tracks and calls for the construction of monopoles, to implement it.
This move prompted an appeal from the Town of Fairfield filed in Superior Court on March 26, disputing the ability of the siting council to grant a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Need for the construction.
“They already approved something, but there's no plan in place. People don't know the impact on their properties. There's no opportunity to file as an intervener or to bring in expert witnesses,” Gerber said of what prompted the escalation to Superior Court.
Gerber also noted that the lines will pass through Fairfield but will most likely not directly serve it.
“There might theoretically be a need far out into the future, but it appears that the real purpose of this project is to carry lines that will transmit electricity to other states where UI will get the benefit but not Connecticut,” Gerber added.
The opposition also extends into neighboring Bridgeport, where the transmission lines will connect with other pieces of infrastructure.
“I am supportive of the lawsuits by Bridgeport, Fairfield and dozens of area neighborhood, environmental, historical and church groups challenging the Connecticut Siting Council (CSC) over its decision to allow United Illuminating to put up large monopoles to carry electric transmission lines across sections of these two communities,” said State Representative Steve Stafstrom, a Democrat of Bridgeport, in a prepared statement.
Stafstrom also noted that he has put forward House Bill 5507, a piece of legislation which would amend statutes to expand the right to intervene in proceedings before the Siting Council.
“This bill was a legislative priority for me this session because it will help environmental justice communities like Bridgeport by ensuring that when utility companies like United Illuminating (UI) or Eversource submit applications to the CSC, they must not only consult city or town leaders where the project is located in, but also notify affected landowners, as well as the members of the Connecticut General Assembly who represent the location of the project,” Stafstrom explained.
Manager of Transmission Lines at United Illuminating Shawn Crosbie described the project as both necessary, and the result of balancing multiple factors, including environmental impacts, resiliency, and the impact of the project on ratepayers as considerations alongside the town’s opposition to the construction and potential easements.
Crosbie noted that much of the existing transmission infrastructure runs directly above the railroad tracks on the same structures as the overhead catenaries which transmit power to Metro North trains. According to him those structures date to the early 1900s and are unable to support modern conductors.
“We have to install to meet the design requirements of the (National Electric Safet Code) and our Avangrid design requirements to account for certain climate change considerations and wind and load capacities,” said Crosbie. “Those catenaries could not withstand that. And we worked with Connecticut DOT, and they would not allow [using the catenaries] as an alternative performed by United Illuminating.”
Crosbie disputed the reports present-
ed in Fairfield’s filings which made the case for building underground transmission infrastructure. While the math used by the experts hired by the town indicated that underground construction would not be significantly more expensive, Crosbie said there were issues that had not been considered.
“When we went through the estimates by the experts from the Town of Fairfield some of those estimates were missing a lot of information,” said Crosbie They were missing management of soil and groundwater, the size and capacity of their [hypothetical] lines and capabilities could not meet what we are held to as a transmission operator. The size of the conductor was much smaller as they were sizing things for a distribution circuit, but we’re on transmission, it’s a different world.”
Crosbie allowed that UI could improve its communications with people who have potentially affected properties, but asserted that real efforts had been made, and will continue to be made as the project moves forward. Even if the process is not delayed by the appeal made by the town, Crosbie said that concrete plans for the project will likely take until early 2025 before they can be submitted and reviewed by all parties.
“We anticipate to start in 2028 maybe, and then be completed in 2030,” Crosbie said. “So, still within the original timeframe of 2025 to 2030.”
“They already approved something, but there's no plan in place. People don't know the impact on their properties. There's no opportunity to file as an intervener or to bring in expert witnesses.”

With approximately 70 million baby boomers aging into retirement, $84 trillion is projected to be passed down from older Americans to millennial and Gen X heirs through 2045, and $16 trillion of that will be transferred within the next decade, according to several published accounts.
Setting up generational wealth transfers can seem like a colossal undertaking, but following these three simple steps will help you secure your family’s financial future.
1. Organize your assets: Generational wealth is defined as any type of asset that is passed down a person’s familial line, whether it be cash, investment funds, or entire companies. With such large assets, wealth is often tied up in multiple accounts. It is important to give yourself plenty of time to effectively organize to whom and where specific items will be going.
The best way to determine when you should begin the process is by looking at your current estate and net worth. A great baseline is when you begin retirement, often in your late sixties.
2. Understand the current laws: Once you have decided to begin the process of transferring your generational wealth, make sure you have an understanding of the current laws on both the federal and state levels. With the introduction of the CARES Act in 2020, the beneficiaries of a generational wealth transfer are now required to take a distribution over time and must liquidate the entirety of the account(s) over a 10-year span, paying income tax on those funds yearly. One way to get around this is to place the funds in a Roth IRA conversion account. While you will pay taxes on those funds upfront, this eliminates stress on
your loved ones, as they will not have to pay those yearly taxes upon liquidation. It is also important to make sure you have a relationship with an attorney who has experience in generational wealth transfers, since they may be your loved one’s strongest ally.
3. Develop (and stick to) a plan of action: Once you have an understanding of the current laws and have connected with an attorney, the next step is to create a plan, ideally in conjunction with a financial trust officer. You, your legal team, and your financial officer will prepare an ideal course of action based on the funds you have, expect to have, the charities to which you wish to contribute, and the dividing of your estate among family members. Review your current Will and make sure the beneficiaries are updated. If you suspect there could be estate issues, a way to mitigate that is to place specific amounts of money into trust funds and assign them to key members of your family. This makes sure that your desires are carried out, even if family
members have other ideas. Making sure that all of your T’s are crossed and your I’s are dotted now will help your loved ones ensure that your wishes are fulfilled properly in the future.

“While some of us are nostalgic for our high school experience… we should not walk into the very building we attended decades ago that our children now attend, with the same look, feel and function.”
- Bob Duf
Governor Ned Lamont joined Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling, State Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff and a host of officials from the city and its school district, including the school mascot, to mark the breaking of new ground at Norwalk High School.
The project is expected to cost $239 million, and several speakers thanked Senator Duff for earning an unusually high reimbursement rate of 80 percent from the state.
Construction was poised to begin with an already established staging area on the site of the school’s former softball field, once the path many students took to reach school busses at the end of the day, while demolition of the football field and athletic grounds began in earnest after the turning of the first ceremonial shovelful.
The new high school’s primary building will be positioned at the southern end of the property, adjacent to Naramake Elementary School. When the new building is completed, demolition will begin on the current Norwalk High School building which is also home to
Pathways in Technology
Early College Highschool (P-TECH), an educational program that provides students the opportunity to work towards an associate’s degree in a technical field while earning their high school diploma. P-TECH and its students will also transfer to the new building.
“This takes a team to do,” said Mayor Rilling to a group of students and dignitaries gathered for the last event to be held on the field where decades of students had run track, watched football games, and received their diplomas. “This is something we’ve waited for quite some time; I believe several years ago now we started talking about this and it’s finally coming to fruition.”
Current Norwalk High student Christian Pierre expressed excitement on behalf of his classmates.
“Although we may not be here to completely enjoy it, I am eager to see the direction the school will be taken in,” Pierre said. “Personally, I’m most excited for the new music department.”
He called finding consistent practice spaces for the school’s award-winning music department a struggle.
Fellow senior Kierra Cunniffe seconded Pierre, and noted “The improved facilities will benefit all of the programs we have been part of for the past four years.”
“From a student’s perspective, although bittersweet, I could not be any more excited and hopeful for the next generation of students and staff,” said Aaron Charles, a P-TECH senior. “This new building will help breed excellence and bring the best out of both schools.
Dr. Alexandra Estrella, the Norwalk Superintendent of Schools explained when asked why this project is so important ,that it was for the sake of the students.
“We need to make sure that we have facilities that are equipped to support them, set up experiences that prepare scholars for the future,” Estrella said. “In order to do that we need to have more projects like the one that we’re seeing here today.”
She also addressed current students, saying “Although you may not be the scholars that will be educated in this new facility, you are the scholars that will come back and celebrate with us the important work that will be happening here because you are also part of this important future.”
Senator Duff hailed the new construction as a necessary step forward. Most of the current building was completed in the 1970s.
“While some of us are nostalgic for our high school experience…we should not walk into the very building we attended decades ago that our children now attend, with the same look, feel and function,” Duff said.
“In fact, these buildings cannot function the same because time pushes us forward. Technology advances and learning styles adapt. So should our school infrastructure. After 52 years it’s time for a change. This Norwalk High School and P-TECH will be the fourth iteration for Norwalk. My grandmother graduated from the first Norwalk High School on West Avenue. I have cousins who graduated from Norwalk High on East Avenue, now City Hall. And I graduated from the present school, as did my two children.”
Duff cited consistent HVAC problems, windowless rooms, unusable courtyards, an undersized and unsecured cafeteria, and widespread issues that make the current building expensive and difficult to bring into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act as key reasons why replacement made more sense than retrofits or upgrades.
As for why the replacements needed to be made now, Duff noted that the
library is not as well equipped as some Norwalk middle schools, mounting air quality problems in the pool area, and needed repairs and upkeep to the plumbing made difficult by the past decision to encase many pipes in concrete.
“If we were not here today for a groundbreaking, Connecticut would need to invest at a minimum $20 million just to maintain the status quo.”
Governor Lamont called Duff the “Teddy Roosevelt” of his delegation, speaking softly and carrying a big stick to accomplish major feats such as an 80 percent reimbursement rate for the project, which he characterized as a worthwhile investment in the state’s future.
I go around and I meet with the other governors,” Lamont told the crowd, “You’ve got Texas going up to a business guy going, ‘we’ve got really cheap gas and oil.’ You’ve got Florida saying ‘well we sell sunshine to tourists.’”
“I get to say, ‘Connecticut has the best trained, most productive workforce in the world.’”
“This,” Lamont said, “is our secret sauce.”

The City of Peekskill is looking for developers to submit concepts to develop transit-oriented projects on four city-owned lots on South Water Street and Railroad Avenue in the center of the city’s Waterfront District. The four lots, comprising three parcels currently are used as parking lots for commuters.
Peekskill has issued a Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEI) document inviting developers to submit their ideas along with their qualifications to follow through with site development.
"These parcels are all within easy walking distance of the Metro North train station, magnificent city parks on the Hudson River and have easy access to Route 9A and the Bear Mountain Parkway," Peekskill said in a document requesting that developers submit their concepts.
Peekskill said that it wants to capitalize on its Hudson River waterfront parks and views and regional rail access. It wants to bring
housing, commercial, and other mixed uses to the Waterfront District.
One of the parcels consists of two lots totaling 0.88 acre at 22-24 S. Water St. The second parcel is 0.52 acre in size at 28 S. Water St. The third parcel is at 305 Railroad Ave. and is 0.44 acre in size.
Peekskill said, "These Waterfront District potential development parcels, in addition to being a very short walk to the train station, are across the tracks from public waterfront parks and a three-mile continuous waterfront trail containing boat launches, the newly reconstructed Fleischmann Pier, public art installations, Peekskill Yacht Club, and commercial venues such as the Factoria, a Holiday Inn Express, Homestyle Bakery, Early Electric, and other waterfront commercial and recreational uses and the Lincoln Depot Museum."
Peekskill said developers who are interested in submitting a concept must do so by May 8, following the format specified in the RFEI.

As winter blended into spring, the more than two-year effort to create an updated White Plains Comprehensive Plan was reaching the point at which the city's Common Council would be called upon to vote on whether to adopt it. The council had held two sessions in a public hearing during February and March and then closed the hearing. Most of the comments from the public were negative about the draft. The document is being examined for possible changes and revisions could become public next month.
The city’s existing Comprehensive Plan dates from 1997 with updates in 2006 and 2012. There was a consensus that it was time for a complete rewrite rather than just another updating.
A draft document of more than 400 pages under the umbrella title “One White Plains” had been prepared by a 15-member Comprehensive Plan Committee working with the city’s planning staff and four consultants: BJF Planning; Urbanomics; Streetsense; and Ramboll. The public was invited to provide input through a variety of public meetings and outreach efforts. An estimated 2,000 public comments had been received.
The draft Comprehensive Plan describes itself as “a long range planning document that provides policy guidance for future growth and development, housing, infrastructure, and public services. The plan provides the foundation for future city decisions regarding development and zoning, capital spending, and general policy. In short, the plan identifies strategies to make the city a better place for years to come.”
The draft devised six elements that
that provides an accessible, safe, pedestrian and multi-modal transportation network in White Plains;
greenWP, that identifies and supports environmental resources and green initiatives; liveWP, that promotes livable neighborhoods that offer a variety of housing options while also balancing an appropriate mix of neighborhood uses that support diverse needs of the community;
playWP, related to parks, recreation and cultural programming; strengthen WP, that addresses the physical and social infrastructure needs of the city;
workWP, that supports a diverse economy, attracts jobs and strengthens the role of the city as a regional economic hub.
City Planning Commissioner Christopher Gomez had described the content of the draft as basically suggestions covering broad ideas of what would be possible. Some activists in the city’s single-family neighborhoods, however, saw in the plan a change in philosophy from previous comprehensive plans and from the hallmark of White Plains administrations, which has been protecting the existing character of the neighborhoods. Neighborhood protection was done through zoning and the practice of keeping dense and high-rise developments downtown.
The draft plan was seen by many as opening the door for developers who may want to build multifamily and high-rise projects in single-family neighborhoods by suggesting that zoning changes could be allowed for single-family-zoned parcels of over
plan soared. One resident, Anthony Fiorenza, gathered signatures on a petition expressing concern about the potential for a new Comprehensive Plan to become a justification for dense developments in single-family neighborhoods.
The White Plains Council of Neighborhood Associations sent a letter signed by President Michael Sanchez that had the support of 11 neighborhood association presidents outlining their concerns to Mayor Tom Roach and members of the Common Council.
“Preserving the integrity of single-family neighborhoods is crucial as sacrificing them would be detrimental to the long-term viability of White Plans,” the letter said. It also expressed concerns about the draft plan promoting accessory dwelling units that could be built onto single-family homes to convert them into multifam-
In another letter to the mayor and council, a resident noted that when the 1997 Comprehensive Plan was being created numerous citizen committees were formed undertaking analysis of key issues such as housing and open space, a technique that was missing during creation of the new draft. Most of those making comments during the two sessions of the Common Council’s public hearing on the draft were critical of the document. As an example, Ron Rhodes, a 45-year resident of the Gedney Farms
section of White Plains, said that “tinkering round with the residential area” makes him nervous.
“If it’s not broken let’s not fix it,” Rhodes said. “Years go when we worked on the Comprehensive Plan changes and revisions it was strictly residents from all neighborhoods working together with other residents on numerous committees without city staff and outside consultants inserting their own agendas and wish lists into the process as appears to have happened now.”.
During a Planning Board meeting that discussed the draft, John Ioris, chairman of the Planning Board said, “I think one of the frustrations that a lot of the people, and when this was made public my phone lit up, a lot of people seem to feel that the zoning regulations in the city are a living thing and they can be changed at the drop of a hat for any particular reason and I think that’s why some of the initiatives in here frighten people. I can’t be specific about what we should change but it’s not the easiest planning document to use. It’s a little bit more of a social engineering document than I would like to see.”
During the public hearing, Mayor Roach said that the draft Comprehensive Plan does not apply to any particular development or site and hinted that there may be changes before a final version is put before the council for a vote.
“It makes recommendations, which can be adopted by the council or not adopted by the council,” Roach said. “Even if this document is passed it doesn’t mean that any of the provisions here will ever be used. Nothing is carved in stone.”
For many Connecticut residents getting hit with an unexpected cost such as a medical emergency or car trouble in between paydays can be disastrous.
Tenisha James, a sales assistant for insurance provider Anthem, found herself in such a situation. She turned to the Earned Wage Access (EWA) app EarnIn for help.
“I found it really convenient to use this app because when I get paid bi-weekly it’s very hard to deal with finances with everything being paid out in just one pay period in the times when I’m falling short,” James said.
“What actually prompted me to use it was because I had some car trouble and I had to get my car fixed. Without a car I can’t make it back and forth to work or do other things,” James said, recalling that she had heard about the app through a radio ad and tried it despite initial skepticism when the costs of auto repair forced her hand.
“As long as the company can verify that I work and actually earn wag-
es then I’m able to get a percentage of my wages that I’ve already earned and be able to not go through the hassle of borrowing money from people, looking for a loan or using a credit card. The fee that I paid is no more than the fee that you would get from a regular ATM.”
EarnIn technically has no fee structure at all, users are only required to pay back the money they borrowed, although there is a suggested $13 tip for using the service.
“What made me decide to actually download it was how it was explained that these are your own wages that you have access to. So, it's not like a loan,” James said.
However, the State of Connecticut’s Banking Commission does not see it the same way, arguing that EWA platforms still qualify as providing loans to customers, particularly since several of the services charge monthly or mandatory fees that can qualify as APRs.
“Connecticut’s Small Loan & Related Activities Act is a broad and
remedial statute intended to protect consumers,” said the Commission in a prepared statement.
“The Act has been part of Connecticut law since the 1920s. It allows lenders to exceed the state’s 12 percent usury cap if they are licensed by the Department, adhere to statutory requirements, and refrain from receiving finance charges from consumers that result in Annual Percentage Rates (APR) of more than 36 percent.”
into account for determining the APR. Enforcement began in earnest at the end of 2023.
According to the statement, companies are required to become licensed as lenders for advances against future earnings if the value of the advance is at or below $50,000 or if the APR is more than 12 percent.
The Small Loan and Related Activities Act was amended in 2016 to consider tips, subscription fees and transfer fees as finance charges that can be taken
“As a result of this legislative change, (which applies to many types of small loans and advances, including earned wage access advances), companies that only accept tips or charge subscription or expedited transfer fees are now covered by the Act if the APR on their loans or advances is greater than 12 percent,” a representative of the State Banking Commission said in a state-

“It doesn’t matter whether the employer signed up, this is something where you can take advantage of without anybody being able to say, ‘I’m sorry your company is not a partner with us.”

ment. “Some companies that had not been covered by the Act prior to P.A. 23-126 had routinely imposed finance charges on Connecticut consumers resulting in APR’s exceeding 300%.”
This means that the smaller the advance taken through an EWA service, the higher the APR in the state’s view. For instance, a $100 advance through EarnIn would have a 13 percent APR, over the 12 percent limit. Sources with the Banking Commission indicated that the average amount EWA users ask for is between $75 and $100.
Advances are also not solely provided by EWA services.
James noted that prior to Anthem she worked for Amazon and the company has a program that allows employees to receive pay for hours worked ahead of fixed paychecks. Walmart also offers a similar service for employees. However, both of those services are offered to employees for free, with no fees.
“This is available to everybody,” said James of EWA services, which she viewed as partially a matter of fairness. “So, it doesn’t matter whether the employer signed up, this is something where you can take advantage of without anybody being able to say, ‘I’m sorry your company is not a partner with us.’”
According to sources with the State Banking Commission the distinction between an advance without fees and EWA is important, as even low fees paid out repeatedly can add up to high costs.
James said that she became a regular user of EarnIn after she used it to cover her auto repairs. As a result, she said losing access to EWA services at the start of the year has made budgeting difficult even if it means no longer paying fees.
Most EWA providers, including EarnIn, pulled out of the state as a result of these regulations on Jan 1 in response to the amended Small Loan & Related Activities Act.
Representatives of various financial technology companies argued that they should not be considered lenders nor required to go through the process of acquiring a license.
One likened the EWA services as similar to the fee charged at an ATM, arguing that the nature of the business model, which does not accrue additional interest and typically handles failure to pay by disallowing additional advances is fundamentally different, and preferable to the rates charged by pay-day loans.
“It’s a safe, responsible alternative to consumers who are looking for access to finances when they need it on their own terms,” said a representative for a trade association, also noting its immense popularity as one of the fastest growing verticals in many markets.
“It keeps people from having to worry about other options,” James said of her experience with EWA. “The last thing you want to do is incur more debt.”
Acorda Therapeutics Inc. has declared bankruptcy and is proposing a sale.
Acorda and five affiliates filed Chapter 11 reorganization petitions on April 2 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, White Plains. They declared $109 million in assets and $266 million in liabilities.
"It is imperative that the company make a seamless transition into Chapter 11," CFO Michael A. Gesser stated in a filing, "to preserve the patient supply of products, the reputation of
the business, and the loyalty and goodwill of customers, suppliers, patients and employees."
Acorda wants to sell by the end of the year. Merz Pharmaceuticals, of Frankfurt, German, has offered to pay $185 million for assets and to assume certain liabilities. Gesser said the company will also continue to solicit higher or better bids.
Acorda was founded in 1995 by medical doctor Ron Cohen. It is based in the Blue Hill Plaza in Pearl River. It has developed medicines that
treat Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis.
Ampyra, also known outside the U.S. as Fampyra, is an extended-release tablet that helps adults with multiple sclerosis walk better.
Inbrija is a dopamine replacement powder that treats motor fluctuations in adults with Parkinson's disease.
But the company has struggled financially. Last year, Acorda recorded $118 million in net revenue, $253 million in net losses, and an accumulated deficit of $1.2 billion.
The company's top seller, Ampyra, began losing market share after a court ruled against the company on a patent issue in 2018, allowing generic drug-makers to cut into sales.
In 2017, Ampyra netted $543 million in revenue. Last year it made $64 million.
In 2014, Acorda acquired the rights to Inbrija for $525 million while the drug was undergoing clinical trials. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the product in 2018 and it was put on the market in 2019.
Acorda expected Inbrija to make
$300 to $500 a year in net revenues, according to Gesser, but annual sales never exceeded $38.4 million.
He attributed the results to Covid-19 pandemic travel disruptions that made it more difficult for Parkinson's patients to see doctors and to shelter-in-place orders that decreased patients' mobility needs.
In 2016, the company paid $363 million for the rights to Tozadenant, a promising Parkinson's drug that was in clinical trials. But in 2017, "after serious adverse events occurred in patients during phase 3 trials," Gesser said, development was discontinued. The medicine never made money.
Acorda reduced its workforce and expenses four times from 2017 to 2021, according to Gesser. But it failed to generate sufficient cash flow or capital, and the company was unable to invest in other products.
The company also owes about $207 million on a debt that will mature in December.
Selling assets would be the best way to maximize value for company stakeholders, Gesser said, while ensuring that "products would continue to be provided on an uninterrupted basis to patients who benefit from these much-needed medications."
Acorda is publicly traded on the Nasdaq exchange. It's high for the past year was $17.60 per share on Aug. 7, 2023. It closed at $13.47 the day before it filed for bankruptcy protection. The day after, it closed at $1.99 per share.
Imprisoned Dutchess County fraudster Bradley C. Reifler has been ordered to pay $8.9 million to his bankruptcy estate for diverting funds from family trust funds.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Cecelia G. Morris issued a default judgment on April 1, based on Reifler’s failure to defend himself against charges brought by a U.S. bankruptcy trustee. Reifler, 64, had petitioned for Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation in 2017, claiming $5 million in assets and $43 million in liabilities.
Trustee Marianne T. O’Toole accused him in 2019 of moving $10.6 million in and out of his children’s trust accounts and illegally funneling funds to himself, his wife and his mother.
The lawsuit also named his family
members as defendants, arguing that they were complicit in fraudulent activity.
On Jan. 3, Judge Morris approved a settlement in which Reifler’s children, wife and mother agreed to pay $220,000 to the bankruptcy trustee, and the trustee agreed to drop charges.
Reifler has traded commodities, derivatives and fixed-income investments, and run an investment banking and wealth management firm.
Over the years he cultivated a reputation as a charismatic master salesman and as a free-spender who lived a lavish lifestyle.
He spent a decade and $8 million, for instance, renovating his horse farm in Millbrook.
In 2022, he pled guilty to defrauding
North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co., the oldest black-owned insurance company in the U.S.
He was sentenced to five years in prison and ordered to pay back $20.3
million.
Reifler is imprisoned at the medium security federal prison in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. He is scheduled for release in November 2025.
More than 40 aftershocks from the April 5 quake had been recorded as of April 9.
Mother Nature shook the ground from Baltimore to Boston with a magnitude 4.8 earthquake at 10:23 a.m. on April 5 that was felt in Westchester and Fairfield. Then, while putting on a show with the April 8 solar eclipse Mother Nature gave the ground another shake. About 20 minutes after the peak obscuration of the sun caused by the moon passing between it and the Earth there was an earthquake measured at 1.3 that was centered about 2.5 miles west of Bedminster, New Jersey, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
“Overall, this earthquake was a very short and very quick event compared to some of the others that we’ve seen where it seems like it kind of rings for a long time,” said Prof. Stephen Holler, head of Fordham University’s William Spain Seismic Observatory. “There may be some aftershocks, which will be the ground resettling down after it slipped, but I don’t expect them to be any larger than what we just
More than 40 aftershocks from the April 5 quake had been recorded as of April 9. One of the strongest, measured at 3.8, occurred
The original 4.8 quake was centered at Whitehouse Station, New Jersey. After the initial earthquake the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) completed inspections throughout its service area, including subway and vehicular tunnels, bridges, and commuter railroad infrastructure. Following the 3.8 aftershock, standard follow-up inspections of infrastructure were conducted, again
State Department of Public Service staff contacted the major utilities in New York state and found no reported issues with the electric, natural gas or steam systems. In addition, no problems were found at the operating nuclear power plants on Lake Ontario, and at the decommissioned Indian Point power plant in Westchester.
The Port Authority bridges and tunnels were checked for damage. Runways at the Port Authority airports were immediately inspected. Ground stops were temporarily put into effect at John F. Kennedy International and Newark airports. There were no delays or diversions reported at LaGuardia or Stewart airports. There was some minor damage to a handful of buildings, mostly in Newark, New Jersey. A gas leak reported in Rockland County was repaired by Orange and Rockland Utilities.
Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano said there were no injuries or damage reported in the city. The city’s public school system reported that the school buildings were checked for damage and no issues were found.
“We are working closely with the City of Yonkers to ensure the safety and well-being of all students, staff, and faculty,” the school system said. “Our Facilities Department has confirmed that, based on visual inspections, all our school buildings retain structural integrity, there are no leaks, breaches etc., and all requisite systems are fully online.”
Westchester County Executive George Latimer said, “Understandably, this is an unnerving experience, but Westchester County appears to have no ongoing emergencies due to the earthquake. While the earthquake was prolonged and noticeable, it is not dissimilar to what we have experienced in the past with other earthquakes.”
Gov. Kathy Hochul said that the main earthquake was one of the largest to occur on the East Coast in the last century.
Hochul, a native of Buffalo, went to Niagara Falls to see the total eclipse. While there, she used a model to explain to youngsters that a total solar eclipse occurs when the sun, the moon, and Earth are lined up. The moon moves between the sun and the Earth, casting a shadow on the Earth. During

totality, the sun’s corona is visible. The ground path where totality can be seen is called the cone or umbra.
A thin cirrus cloud layer at about 25,000 feet over the NewYork Metro area had breaks in it and only partially interfered with viewing. Some areas along the path of totality had thicker clouds. In Rochester, for example, heavy clouds obscured the view of the moon moving in front of the sun.
New York cities along the path of totality included Jamestown, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Watertown, Lake Placid, and Plattsburgh. The sun in White Plains was 92% obscured by the moon, with New York City seeing 89% totality and Brookhaven on Long Island having 88% totality. In Utica, coverage of the sun was 99% and in the state capital of Albany it was 96%.
The eclipse began in the New York Metro area at about 2:10 and lasted until 4:36, with the peak coverage of the sun at 3:25.
The April 8 event was the first total eclipse visible in New York state since 1924.
The Westchester County Parks’ Conservation Division hosted eclipse viewing events at county parks.
County Executive George Latimer said, “It is rare for a total solar eclipse to be viewable to so many people and it’s exciting that it will be partially visible in our area. Experiencing it safely at our parks is a great way to mark this special phenomenon.”
In Connecticut, examples of viewing events included those at the Darien Nature Center, Yale’s Leitner Family Planetarium and Observatory in New Haven, and Bridgeport’s Sacred Heart University’s Discovery Science Center and Planetarium.
The Greenburgh Town Board is being asked to issue a special permit so that a vacant office building can be put to use housing the Westchester Institute for Human Development (WIHD), a nonprofit that provides medical clinic and other services. The building is at 80 Grasslands Road. Lewiston Realty Holdings LLC and Lewiston Holdings LLC own both 80 Grasslands Road and 100 Grasslands Road.
"The property was originally part of a three parcel comprehensive development plan known as Heritage Corporate Park," according to Janet Giris of the White Plains-based law firm DelBello Donnellan Weingarten Wise & Wiederkehr LLP. "The property is located on the south side of Grasslands Road, just east of the intersection of Grasslands Road and Saw Mill River Road."

If the permit is granted, it would lease the first and second floors of 80 Grasslands Road to WIHD, which currently is headquartered in Valhalla and would relocate to Greenburgh. There would be 29,072 square feet devoted to clinic space and 29,593 square feet devoted to office space.
"WIHD was established in 1950 and has been operating in Westchester County since 1972 as a key regional resource that provides a wide range of medical, dental, clinical and social services to individuals with disabilities, vulnerable children, families and professionals," Giris said. "WIHD provides direct services for people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and their families, including, primary health care, specialty health care, dental services, speech and hearing, assistive technology, behavioral health, service brokerage, and early intervention service coordination. In addition, WIHD serves as the Children’s Advocacy Center for Westchester County and provides therapeutic, educational and medical services to children in foster care."

Congratulations!
cingarifamilymarkets.com– is unlikely to forget his interview with the Westfair Business Journal.
While we’d like to think it was our incisive journalism, we know it was because it was a moving experience – literally. We were in the midst of our phone conversation with Cingari when a magnitude 4.8 earthquake struck the metro area. Though the epicenter was near Whitehouse Station, N.J., Cingari felt the effects at the markets’ 6,000-squarefoot, state-of-the-art kitchen in Stamford, just as we did in Westchester County, the tea sets rattling on the hutch in our home office. Cingari meanwhile could see telephone poles swaying – it probably wasn’t the best thing to run to the window, he said after with a chuckle – and looks of concern on the faces of the 30 workers making the leafy salads that along with prepared meals and sides like white and sweet potatoes are part of the markets’ Grade Above brand.
“As soon as Covid prices came down, we came down.”
- David Cingari
Yet through it all, he kept us calm and laughing – a good quality for someone in the high-pressured world of food preparation. Adding to that challenge: The company is in the midst of renovating all 12 stores, with Norwalk, Shelton and the two in Stamford (Shippan Avenue and Commerce Street) completed. The refurbishment includes redone exteriors and interiors, with new flooring and lighting, upgraded refrigeration and doors on dairy cases for greater energy savings.
“It makes everything look beautiful,” he said. And that is a great marketing tool, he added: “We find an increase in traffic once the stores are renovated, 10 to 15% within four weeks of a renovation. We were kind
of surprised. Food service increased 20 to 30%, depending on the location. It’s all about the merchandising.”
These have not been the easiest times in the food industry as inflation lingers in pricing for such products as canned goods; fish; and meats, especially beef – although chicken prices, through the roof in Covid, have stabilized, Cingari said. Labor costs, trucking, animal diseases and weather all contribute to the picture, he added.
“As soon as Covid prices came down, we came down,” Cingari said. “Is every supermarket around the country doing this? I can’t say. But we stay in line within our margins.”
Still, Cingari added, “You can’t stop people from shopping. People have to eat.” What are Cingari customers loving? “All year long, chipotle chicken and black-bean quesadillas. I didn’t expect them to be best sellers. We must make hundreds a day.”
Besides this dish, a kind of TexMex answer to pizza, Cingari’s Grade Above offerings include chicken pot pie with a puff-pastry crust; fettucine Alfredo with chicken and peas; and a sesame-glazed salmon with basmati rice and roasted carrots that Cingari himself has once or twice a week.
As cool temperatures linger into the early spring, beef stew has flown out the door, he said, along with shepherd’s pie, whose recipe is included here. (Cingari has regularly contributed recipes to our newsletters.) Need something handy when guests drop by? Cingari makes a quick baked Brie with raspberry jam, with the recipe also included here.
Cingari has always loved cooking and food. Growing up in Stamford,
he’d help his mother make meatballs and man the grill at family barbecues. While at the now-defunct St. Basil’s Preparatory School in Stamford, he took cooking classes at night.
Still, his ambition was to be a skateboarder in California, he said, imagining that this must’ve horrified his parents. But en route, he visited his brother John in Dallas, which led to jobs in a kitchen and at a country club, where the creations of the Culinary Institute of America-trained chef so impressed him that he enrolled in the CIA in Hyde Park, New York. Cingari began his career as a chef in Manhattan. After several years working in hotels and restaurants there, he returned to Fairfield County to open the restaurant David’s American Food and Drink (1987-97) and David’s Soundview Catering (1990-2021).
In October of 2020, he joined the Cingari Family Markets, a four-generation business that began when Salvatore Cingari, an Italian immigrant, retrofitted an old school bus as a traveling grocery stand in Stamford after losing his construction job during the Great Depression. In 1991, the Cingari stores became part of the Wakefern/ShopRite cooperative.
Today, they’re headed by President and CEO Thomas Cingari, David’s older brother.
“He’s definitely older,” Cingari said, laughing, as apparently there is some good-natured ribbing between the two as to whom others think looks older. Thomas’ two sons and various cousins are also among the roughly 2,600 employees.
Cingari still makes his home in Stamford with his wife, their three children now grown. They’re not in the food business, he said.
And, he added with one final laugh, “they’re definitely not skateboarders.”

When golden brown, remove from oven and place on a platter with sliced French baguette, crackers, cut vegetables or sliced apples and enjoy.
(*You can use any flavor of jam or preserves – fig is a natural pairing with Brie – whole berry cranberry sauce or a chutney. You can also add sliced or chopped nuts, such as almonds, pecans, walnuts or pistachios.)
Sally’s Apizza, a longestablished pizzeria in New England, is rebranding itself as a pizzaserving Italian restaurant.
Table Talk’s Jeremy Wayne is on the scene at the Stamford location.
“Have you ever been to Sally’s before?” we’re quizzed by our server, seconds after being seated in a wide booth in the far corner of the popular pizza restaurant, located in an alley behind Main Street in downtown Stamford. Sally of the Alley, I call it.
“No,” my pal and I lied, not, you understand, because we’re liars by nature but because, in the interests of good reporting, we want to hear the server’s spiel. And very informative it was, too.
“Sally’s,” he said, “is our New Haven-style pizza, sauce forward, light on cheese, with a touch of char from the open oven.” Got it.
Sally’s first opened in New Haven as a pizzeria in 1938. More than 85 years later, with four locations, namely New Haven, Fairfield, Stamford – launched two years ago – and the recently-opened one in Woburn, Massachusetts, the group is transitioning from purveyors of pizza and rebranding as “a rapidly expanding Italian restaurant that also serves pizza.”
Not halting there, as several new locales, including Norwalk, Wethersfield, Newington and West Hartford, all in Connecticut, are in the pipeline. So is an outlet in Boston’s Seaport.
The Stamford branch looks lovely. It's big and bright with spacious leather booths, a semiprivate dining room, an open kitchen, a mezzanine and a larger bar. On a bright corner site with floor-to-ceiling windows, we also admired its terrazzo floor and generously-sized tables, with ample space between them. Whether by accident or intent, the designer of this restaurant, indeed all the Sally’s restaurants, since they all share the same look, has arrived at a brilliant approximation of a trendy Milanese enoteca as opposed to, say, a Neapolitan pizzeria, so much so I felt myself transported to the Italian fashion capital before I’d had a single bite.
So, what did we bite?
Those bruschette made a great starter – four slices piled high with tomato, eggplant, Calabrian salami and mushroom, and something of a bargain if you take advantage of the all-four assortment. The crisp, toasted bread held the toppings well but drizzled with – you could say slathered in – good quality olive oil, be warned: This was a messy snack to eat.
Baked clams looked wonderfully appetizing, splayed in their cast-iron dish, which arrived piping hot with an instruction not to touch it. (Of course, we did.) But they were murderously salty and those golden breadcrumbs, which looked so appealing, turned out to be soggy and a little sad.
Updated and new dishes include panuozzi, which are only available at lunch time. Made with the same dough as Sally’s uses for its pizza, the Hot Italian with mortadella, salami, provolone and peppers – and much, much more besides – was just too much of a good thing in my book, although the pal said he rated it. I got the thinking behind it, namely “let’s throw everything we got at this,” but I found the ingredients to be non-cohesive and slightly overwhelming. Others, like my pal, will doubtless love it.
Thin-crust, coal-fired New Haven pizzas – apizzas as they are known – come on waxed paper on individual metal trays. Our mozzarella and tomato sauce pie, a margherita by any other name, (although the New Haven apizza purists won’t like me calling it that), was a joy – a beautiful, blushrose color and sweet tomato shot with creamy mozz, or “mootz”, as they say in New Haven. And thanks to that light “kiss” of char, I even finished the crust, something I tend not to do.
The seasonal apizza special, the Spring Fling, by contrast, was a white pie with mozzarella, sugar and snap peas, pancetta, egg yolk and pea tendrils. “Pizza, bacon and eggs, plus salad all in one,” as the pal quipped. Shouldn’t have worked, but it did.
My request for a tiramisù to share brought the question, “Are you residents here?” Apparently, dessert is offered free to residents of the building in which Sally’s sits. I’ll be honest: This
was going to have to be a mighty good tiramisù to get me to move to downtown Stamford, since I’m happy where I already live. But you know what? It was so good, it came pretty close. And we loved the stenciled “S” for Sally’s in the cocoa powder surround.
Sally’s doesn’t do espresso, only regular coffee. Brought to the table on a large black plate with a selection of creamers and sugars, this felt almost like a course on its own. Could a coffee course become a thing? Well, not this coffee: It was lukewarm and weak. When I mentioned this, it was graciously removed, an apology was offered and a new cup of hot coffee quickly brought.
This time around it was scalding –and still weak. “Way too hot to drink,” I sulked.
“Too cold, too hot, make up your mind,” said my pal. “Some people are never satisfied.”
That said, there’s plenty to satisfy at Sally’s, and some room for improvement.

Great hotelkeeping reaches its zenith at The Upper House in Hong Kong, a city that remains a vital commercial and cultural center.
By Jeremy Wayne / jwayne@westfairinc.comHong Kong has not been getting the most favorable press of late, yet the former British colony – handed back to China in 1997, its economic and political independence guaranteed by treaty for 50 years until 2047 – is still a powerhouse. Hong Kong is the world's fourth highest-ranked financial center and boasts one of the world’s most significant commercial ports. It is also the world’s ninth-largest exporter, its eighth-largest importer and its currency, the Hong Kong dollar, is the world’s ninth most traded currency. The former colony is home to more billionaires than Monaco, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) combined – per Forbes Billionaires (April 2024) – and, fun fact and with apologies to New York City –has the largest number of skyscrapers of any city in the world.
The flight from New York, which used to take 18 hours with a stop and had you arriving in a near-zombified state at the other end, now takes around 15 hours nonstop, thanks to Cathay Pacific’s over-the-Pole routing. And thanks to Cathay’s stellar business class service, it also has you arriving into Hong Kong’s Chep Lap Kok International Airport as fresh as a plum blossom. Take Cathay’s late-night departure from John F. Kennedy International Airport, enjoy a couple of glasses of Drappier Champagne before a light (but not too light) supper of wok-fried cod in sweetcorn sauce, watch a movie or two and catch a seriously good night’s sleep under a linen-covered duvet on the comfiest flat bed in the airline business, and you’ll wake up just in time for a first-rate breakfast over Beijing – refreshed, ready and positively raring to go.
Whether you head across the Pacific for business or for pleasure, you can’t say you know Asia until you know Hong Kong – and you can’t say you know Hong Kong until you know the wonderful Upper House hotel in its Admiralty District. In a city where any number of legendary hotels clamor for space and attention with one another, this beauty stands elegantly above the competition.
Swinging in to The Upper House’s porte cochère, I was greeted by the very affable Alex, extraordinarily bright-eyed for 6 a.m. – my Cathay flight from New York having arrived a good hour early – who welcomed me like an old family friend and
whisked me to my room on the 40th floor. Designated “Upper,” this suite was more like a small country in the clouds, with its baseball-diamond-size living room, its bedroom and plush dressing area, its soothing white bathroom with separate bath and shower rooms and its expansive Hong Kong Island and Victoria Harbor views. A pegboard propped up on an easel on the consul table announced “Welcome home, Jeremy,” and I really felt it meant it. (A pegboard with soul.) There was a shaving kit bearing my initials on the box in the bathroom, solid mahogany shoe trees in the closet and, on the living-room table, a breakfast feast laid out, because as Alex so rightly said, “You can get hungry after a flight.” Even, I might add, when the flight attendants feed you as well as they do on Cathay.
Elsewhere, not only in my exceptional suite but throughout the public spaces of the hotel, the pale wood and pale gray color palette soothed, while service, like almost everywhere in Hong Kong, was superb. At Upper House you never wait more than a few seconds for a taxi (or the complimentary hotel car); and never carry a shopping bag without someone springing to assist you. Generosity in all its forms courses through this hotel’s upper-class veins. With clean lines and a sleek aesthetic, swish Upper House struck me as a minimalist hotel with a maximalist heart.
Outside the hotel, there were still reminders throughout of Hong Kong’s British past. Driving is on the left, cars have British-style license plates and, with multiple stores throughout the territory, the clothing, home-goods and grocery chain Marks & Spencer is still going strong.
Inside, in the wet bar in my suite at Upper House, I found a British-made electric kettle with a standard 220V British plug for super-quick boiling and packets of McVitie’s milk chocolate digestive biscuits for nibbling – McVitie’s being to British people what Oreos
are to Americans. Baked beans, an English breakfast staple, were served with the Upper House’s first-class “full English” breakfast.
Although the hotel does not have a dedicated spa, a number of top-ofthe-line treatments are available in guest rooms. Even more enticingly, Upper House has just entered into a new collaboration with 10x Longevity, a wellness center situated just 50 yards from the hotel, which offers hyperbaric oxygen therapy, infrared sauna and light therapy. Combined, these treatments can support immune health; stimulate the mitochondria, (the part of our cells responsible for energy production); challenge our cardiovascular systems; and get our hearts pumping without doing a workout. Plus, as 10x Longevity’s founder, Jill Van Vugt, told me, the most important benefit of all, and the one that informs all others – regenerative skin treatments, which increase cellular regeneration.
Hong Kong, it struck me – where life expectancy, according to 2022 Bloomberg figures, is the highest in the world, along with Japan’s – seems a fitting base for her new company. I was keen to learn more about Hong Kong’s financial health, too. Why has the territory’s post-Covid-19 recovery been slower than expected and why are prices for luxury apartments, which until recently constituted the most expensive real estate in the world, been dropping?
At the Upper House’s polished 49th floor Mediterranean restaurant, Salisterra, I put the question to the hotel’s general manager, Kristina Snaith-Lense, over an excellent lunch of Obsiblue prawn crudo, sea snails with Puy lentils and succulent roasted spring chicken. “We bounced back after Covid, but then last year we saw an unexpected dip. Then again, Hong Kong being Hong Kong, everything will be back.” As I speared my Spanish churros with cinnamon dust and took
another bite of the sublime orange blossom meringue dessert, I took in the spectacular view of Hong Kong Island, across Victoria Harbor to Kowloon, the northern section of Hong Kong on the Chinese mainland, and counted more than 40 cranes. In terms of building alone, there is no sense of a downturn.
I got another take on this on the street, when I drew parallel with two grandees, lawyers or bankers possibly, and overheard them talking. “Depression, recession? I don’t buy it,” said one. “Ah,” his companion replied, “but a depression, whether you believe it or not, is precisely when you should buy.” Say you read it here. Because Hong Kong is, and will likely always be, a phenomenon. Its cultural scene is booming, hotels and restaurants continue to open apace, and petty crime – owing to Confucianism-based family-oriented values, a professional police force and strict gun laws – remains low.
“I’ve heard a few people say the money is going to Japan,” Stephanie Shiu, director of marketing and communications for The Upper House told me, before quickly reminding me that the prestigious (Saudi-backed) LIV Golf Tournament had just been played at the Hong Kong Golf Club and that Art Basel Hong Kong, one of the most important art events in Asia, was opening the following week. Business would be brisk. Upper House would be sold out. “After Hong Kong,” said Shiu, “everywhere seems slow.”

The breadth and diversity of the lower Hudson Valley’s cultural landscape will be on display at ArtsWestchester’s new group exhibition, which started April 14.
The Open Call exhibition features 22 area artists who represent a thriving art scene. One standout artist to watch is Elizabeth Diaz, recipient of the Larry Salley Photography Award for 2024. Diaz’s captivating photographs of members of Yonkers’ trans community shed light on a social group that is often invisible to the general public.
“This exhibition is part of ArtsWestchester’s Arts Exchange series, which aims to promote and support local artists by providing them with a platform to showcase their work,” said Kathleen Reckling, ArtsWestchester’s COO. “We are committed to nurturing artistic talent and fostering a vibrant arts community.”
The exhibited artists represent a wide spectrum of artistic styles and media, from painters to sculptors, photographers to mixed media artists.
The exhibition runs through May 26. ArtsWestchester is located at 31 Mamaroneck Ave. in White Plains.
Two new board members, whose leadership and experience will help guide The Picture House Regional Film Center in Pelham during its second century as a vital arts and community hub in Westchester have been announced. They are Julie M. Murray, a partner in the Entertainment Group at Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz, who specializes in representing clients in the television, documentary, digital, comedy and branded content industries, and Hyde Harper, a New York City-based creative producer and director specializing in commercial, film and branded work in the sports, culture and lifestyle categories.

The Legal 500 lists her in the 2021-23 editions as a “Next Generation Partner” in Media and Entertainment and “Super Lawyers” magazine lists her as a 2023 “Rising Star” in Entertainment and Sports. Harper has produced and directed work across major networks and verticals such as ESPN, FOX, NBC, BBC, Conde Nast Entertainment and Hearst. His documentary “The Nationals,” premiered at Tribeca Film Festival in 2023. His passion resides in telling human stories through the lens of sport and
culture. He currently runs the production department at FanDuel Inc. as executive producer.
In addition to welcoming new members of the board, other changes have been made to the board leadership. Joe Marty will take on the role of chair, Jeffay Chang will serve as vice-chair, and Peter Kohnstamm will assume the role of secretary.
The Picture House is looking forward to the expertise and perspectives these new board members will bring to the organization as well as the leadership that the shift in board roles brings.
Housed in two historic theaters from the 1920s, The Picture House is a thriving regional film center providing dynamic film and education programs to a diverse and multigenerational audience in Westchester County and beyond.

C
hoyce Peterson Inc., a commercial real estate brokerage firm, recently announced the successful sale of the 32,000-square-foot building located at 315 Post Road West in Westport, Connecticut, on behalf of the owners Kings-Post Associates, a partnership owned by the DeLuca Family. The buyer is Post West Park LLC, an affiliate of American Bailey Corp., a family office/ private equity firm that has been leasing space for its principal office in Stamford for 39 years.
American Bailey’s CEO Doug Bailey, said, “When I was ready to decide on our office relocation, I contacted Choyce Peterson. I wanted our next location to have a strong corporate presence and a Westport address. No other property attracted me as much as 315 Post Road West. It has a timeless design and is situated on a fine parcel of land. My team and I are already hard at work to create many thoughtful improvements.”
In mid-2023, Choyce Peterson’s Capital Markets team of Vice Presidents Scott Peterson and Charlene O’Connell was appointed by the Deluca Family as the exclusive listing agent for this office building situated on a 2.82-acre site along Route 1. The team promoted the sale of the property via a number of channels, including the canvasing of prominent office buildings across lower Fairfield County and the distribution of marketing materials to local, regional and national investors. Through these efforts, Choyce Pe-
terson’s Principal John Hannigan, along with Peterson, introduced Bailey to the building.
“While we had offers from potential buyers from as far as Florida, in the end, all the front runners were local. Ultimately, the building was purchased by a longtime Westport resident interested in the property as a new home for his business,” said Peterson. “Bailey saw the vision of owning this building. Just witnessing his exacting due diligence leaves us confident that he will enhance this property beyond what most people might expect.”
“The Choyce Peterson team did a great job,” said the Deluca Family. “We had countless inquiries from a variety of buyers and we’re glad this team found a fitting new owner who will make the building an excellent home for his business and that of his tenants.”
“This is one of those transactions in which everybody wins,” said Peterson. “The Deluca family sells their building at a good price. American Bailey has found a beautiful and convenient new corporate home. The town of Westport benefits by having a reputable company move to town and investing in making this location an even better place to work. It’s even good news for commuters – each person we remove from that southbound morning drive is a win.”
Choyce Peterson, a full-service commercial real estate brokerage with offices in Norwalk, Connecticut, and Rye Brook, New York, was founded in 1997 and has negotiated millions of square feet of transactions in 42 states and Canada.

Westchester Land Trust (WLT), a nationally accredited land conservation nonprofit headquartered in Bedford Hills, New York, recently received an anonymous $100,000 grant to support efforts to improve forest health and combat the many challenges threatening trees across the region.
Forested landscapes throughout Westchester County and beyond are facing increasing struggles, with pests and diseases decimating many of most common trees. In just the last decade, ash trees have become functionally extinct across much of the region. Over the last century, entire tree species, like chestnut, elm and hemlocks, have mostly been erased from the landscape, and beech may be next, due to the emerging spread of beech leaf disease.
When mature trees die off or are damaged, young trees are prevented from taking their place because invasive plants from Europe and Asia seize the opportunity to invade and outcompete native plants for resources. Adding to the pressure, Westchester’s forests are severely overgrazed by an unsustainably large deer population, limiting natural tree regeneration. These threats leave forests vulnerable to other stressors, like climate change, which often brings extreme weather events like drought one year, deluges of rain the next, and high winds.
“Although there’s no shortage of challenges facing our forests, this transformative grant will play a crucial role in improving the natural places that sustain our communities,” said Kara Whelan, president of Westchester Land Trust. “By taking action now, we can ensure that future generations
have trees to shade them, filter the air they breathe, and protect the clean water they drink. We’re grateful to our visionary anonymous donor and the many volunteers who are helping to bring this work to life.”
The six-figure investment will support an ambitious plan to restore the health of WLT’s forested preserves, including vine cutting at 60 targeted areas across 13 preserves to relieve trees of a massive stressor and freeing up their strength to stand tall against other threats; planting 450 trees this spring and fall at 11 preserves; erecting a 10-acre deer fence at WLT’s Frederick P. Rose Preserve (Lewisboro) to allow for regeneration in areas that are expected to experience a massive dieback of mature trees due to beech leaf disease; and protecting young trees in forest clearings outside deer exclosures at 10 preserves to encourage their growth with tree tubes that prevent deer browse.
“Our forests are important to our well-being — hiking strengthens our bodies and our minds and provides critical ecosystem services like climate change mitigation and flood protection,” said Janelle Robbins, vice president of conservation. “This life-changing grant gives us the opportunity to enact simple, strong practices and we invite the community to join us.”
Westchester Land Trust works with public and private partners to preserve land in perpetuity and to enhance the natural resources in Westchester and eastern Putnam counties — a densely populated region under persistent threat from the pressures of development. Founded in 1988, WLT has preserved more than 9,250 acres of open space and 1,112 acres of land are owned by the organization, which are free and open to the public year-round. WLT was one of the first land trusts in the nation to receive accreditation through the Land Trust Accreditation Commission.

Hoffmann Architects + Engineers, a design firm specializing in the rehabilitation of building exteriors, has named the 2024 recipient of its Hoffmann Diversity Advancement Scholarship. Now in its second year, the Hoffmann Scholarship was established in collaboration with the Connecticut Architecture Foundation (CAF) to support students from underrepresented racial or ethnic
who are seeking degrees
architecture or engineering.
Alyssa Duran, a fourth-year student pursuing a Bachelor of Architecture degree at the New York City College of Technology, was selected as the recipient of the 2024 Hoffmann Diversity Advancement Scholarship. She was selected from a competitive applicant pool of high-achieving students, many the first in their families to attend college, who were inspired to enter the design professions to pursue environmental justice, protect heritage sites and improve the daily lives of their communities.
“We were captivated by the talent and drive of this year’s applicant pool as they overcame challenges to pursue careers in architecture and design,” said Alison Hoffmann, chair of the Hoffmann Diversity and Inclusion Committee. “They describe experiences with housing insecurity, with surviving natural disasters and conflict in their country of origin, with the responsibilities of caring for siblings and holding down jobs while managing schoolwork. Yet their narratives overwhelmingly focus on a passion for architecture and for the ways it can shape a community. Many of the applicants cited preserving culturally important structures and uplifting neighborhoods through design as motivations for pursuing their studies. Our committee was inspired and humbled by these ambitious young people.”
Duran grew up in the Dominican Republic, where she observed firsthand the challenges of preserving the island’s historic architecture. The tropical climate accelerated deterioration and led her to consider how to address the increasing threats to the built environment due to climate change. When she came to New York, she was drawn to historic restoration.
“I became inspired by the innovative methods employed to rehabilitate, give new life, and restore existing structures,” Duran said. “I believe historic restoration represents the future of architecture, showcasing that sustainable design can be achieved in this industry in so many ways without having to start from scratch.”
With a focus on the rehabilitation of building exteriors, the specialized practice of Hoffmann Architects + Engineers aligns with Duran’s goals to reduce climate impact through the restoration and reuse of existing buildings. Hoffmann’s scholarship committee was impressed not only with her impeccable academic record and perfect 4.0 GPA, but also with her sense of place. Deeply connected with the spaces where she lives and works, Duran interned with the New York City Department of Design and Construction, contributed to research with NYCCT architecture faculty and currently serves as a digital fabrication specialist for the architecture department. Bilingual in English and Spanish, she brings a forward-thinking design sensibility to the practice of restoration, which Hoffmann champions as a key priority of this scholarship program.
To fund the scholarship, Hoffmann Architects + Engineers contributed $25,000 in its inaugural year and an additional $10,000 in the second year. John J. Hoffmann, FAIA, executive chairman of the firm, personally contributed several thousand dollars more and employees joined him in making person-
al donations. CAF also collected contributions from individual donors.
The Hoffmann Diversity Advancement Scholarship is open to applicants who are students entering or enrolled full-time in an NAAB-accredited architecture program or ABET-accredited civil or structural engineering program, and residents / full-time college or university students located in southern New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island) or the eastern Mid-Atlantic (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Maryland), regions that form the core of Hoffmann’s practice. Eligible applicants represent a minority racial or ethnic group, as defined by the state of New York.
Founded in 1977, Hoffmann Architects + Engineers specializes in the rehabilitation of building enclosures. The firm’s work focuses on the exteriors of existing structures, diagnosing and resolving deterioration within facades, roofing systems, windows, waterproofing materials, plazas/terraces, parking garages and historic and landmark structures. It also provides consulting services for new construction, as well as litigation and claim support. The Connecticut Architecture Foundation Inc. was established by the Connecticut Chapter of The American Institute of Architects in 1978. The organization’s mission is to raise the public awareness of, and expectations for architecture and the built environment. CAF accomplishes these goals through the funding of programs in education, scholarship, mentorship and research.

Gephardt earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Northwestern University in 1962 and his Juris Doctorate from the University of Michigan Law School in 1965.

Participants with a Wing Walk bracelet are permitted to try two wings from every establishment in 2.5-hour rounds, and to vote for their favorite via a public ballot. Bracelet holders will also receive a voucher for six additional mouthwatering wings at a Wing Walk participant restaurant of their choice. The vouchers can be redeemed in the six days after the event, between April 21 and April 26. Flavors beyond the tried-and-true buffalo sauce include Spicy Basil, Tamarind Picante, Sweet and Sour Bourbon, Thai Peanut and Korean BBQ. Over 16,000 wings are expected to be consumed.
To add some festive “feathers” to the event, the event’s coordinator, the Downtown White Plains Business Improvement District, has added on-site entertainment as part of this moveable feathered feast. Live acoustic music by guitarist Gerald Edward and The Slide Stops will be positioned throughout the route downtown. Chuck the Chicken (Wing Walk’s mascot) will be present for selfie snaps with all wing lovers. Additionally, chicken cornhole, life-sized connect four and several other “backyard” games will be present on street corners to add some “zest to the nest” and engage Wing Walkers in a day of play.
“Our restaurants come out in full force for Wing Walk every year,” said Jennifer Furioli, executive director of the downtown business support nonprofit. It’s a great event that builds community and moves people door to door to some of our most dynamic restaurants in town.
Restaurants wishing to win the battle of the wings will have two chances this year to take home a title. The standard “public’s choice” voting will remain, via ballot, as it has in the past, where after sampling two flavors of wings at each restaurant, diners can cast a vote for their favorite.
In addition, this year a “VIP Judges Panel”, comprised of seasoned culinary professionals and wing lovers, will also select their own champion via group deliberation and debate. The members of the VIP judges panel include Chef Ron Gallo, executive chef of Jean George’s Happy Monkey in Greenwich; Anthony Goncalves, executive chef of Kanopi and a James Beard Finalist for Best New York State Chef; Phil McGrath, chair, Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management-SUNY Westchester; Westchester Community College culinary student Emily Wada; Mayor Thomas Roach; and Jason Bertolini of Dana Distributors.
Wing Walk is sponsored by Stella Artois. Tickets are priced at $25 for general admission and $15 for children 5-10 years old. Children under 5 are free. Online ticket sales end on Friday, April 19 at 11:59 pm. To view the Downtown White Plains Wing Walk Map and purchase tickets, visit wpbid. com/wingwalk.
